Cancer Prevention

6.5K
Several factors can increase the risk of cancer in an individual. About 50% of cancer cases can be prevented by adopting a healthy lifestyle, regular exercise, eating healthy, and following a modest cancer prevention diet. Epidemiological studies have consistently shown that populations with vegetable and fruit-rich diets have reduced the incidence of cancer. On the other hand, populations who have a diet rich in animal fat, red meat, junk food, or high calories are predisposed to cancer.

Summary

Primary care physicians, particularly gynecologists, often do not follow U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) mammography screening guidelines. This leads to conflicting breast cancer screening advice for patients.

Area of Science:

  • Medical screening practices
  • Primary care physician recommendations
  • Mammography guidelines adherence

Background:

  • U.S. Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) mammography screening guidelines changed in 2009.
  • Current USPSTF guidelines conflict with those of other major organizations.
  • Physician adherence to USPSTF guidelines across primary care specialties is not well understood.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess adherence to USPSTF mammography screening guidelines among primary care physicians.
  • To compare screening recommendations across internal medicine, family medicine, and gynecology specialties.

Main Methods:

  • A cross-sectional, web-based survey was administered to 316 physicians in internal medicine, family medicine, and gynecology.
  • Survey items queried breast cancer screening recommendations for average-risk women of various ages.
  • Logistic regression models were used to compare recommendations between specialties.

Main Results:

  • A majority of internists (65%), family physicians (64%), and gynecologists (92%) recommended starting screening at age 40, contrary to USPSTF guidelines.
  • Most providers recommended annual (77% internal medicine, 74% family medicine, 98% gynecology) versus biennial screening.
  • Gynecologists were significantly more likely to recommend earlier and more frequent mammography compared to internists and family physicians.

Conclusions:

  • Primary care providers, especially gynecologists, have not widely adopted the current USPSTF mammography screening guidelines.
  • Conflicting breast cancer screening recommendations are likely given to patients by different providers.
  • Further research is needed to explore the influence of patient versus provider preferences on these recommendations.
